Update: Walmart Still Doesn't Care Enough To Pull Nazi T-Shirts

So then there was the time that Walmart didn't bother removing shirts with Nazi insignia for three months. And then there was that other time a little bit later when Congress investigated, which led to sincere promises of quick resolution on Walmart's part.

And now there's the time, an amazing 22 weeks after they first found out about the shirts, where Walmart has still not removed the shirts:

22 weeks after Walmart agreed to remove shirts bearing Nazi iconography from its shelves.. Amanda's sister found a whole bunch in Ohio: I had nearly forgotten about the whole thing when I received a call from my sister, Ali, in Bowling Green, Ohio. Apparently, they have a whole stack of the shirts! She described them very accurately on the phone, so I instructed her to buy a couple, and take lots of pictures.

And that's what a global conspiracy gets us - tentacles in government offices, business headquarters, and media newsrooms, but no way to get storm trooper t-shirts pulled off the shelves at Walmart. You know that those things would've been gone in a day if they were "insensitive to Islam". But Nazi insignia? Apparently not insensitive enough to Jews to pull. We ask again, as we've asked many times: why isn't the ADL all over this? They're hypersensitive to every other perceived slight against Jews anywhere in the US - but take an actual instance of something that smacks of celebrating Nazism, and nada.
